How many members are on the Board of Equalization and what is their term length?

The Board of Equalization typically consists of five members, and each member serves a term length of four years. This structure is designed to ensure a diverse representation and expertise on the board, which is vital for making balanced and fair decisions regarding property valuations and tax assessments. The four-year term allows members to have a sufficient duration to understand the complexities of property taxation and contribute to the oversight of local taxation practices effectively.

While there are variations in other states or different boards, the specific combination of five members serving for four years is established in many jurisdictions to ensure continuity and experience within the board.
